Sustainability Solutions

Revolutionary styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) modified bitumens were pioneered by Siplast in partnership with Shell Chemical of Europe in the late 1960s. This elastomeric blend of asphalt and SBS is highly durable and capable of exceptional elongation and recovery properties over a wide range of temperatures. This technology formed the basis of Siplast's core high-performance, two-ply engineered roof systems — Paradiene and Veral — creating trusted solutions that have become a mainstay for commercial building projects in more than 40 countries worldwide.

Siplast Lightweight Insulating Concrete Systems combine the unique properties of lightweight insulating concrete and Insulperm premium expanded polystyrene foam insulation board. Siplast Lightweight is available in four mix designs — ZIC, NVS, Insulcel, and Zonocel — representing a range of compressive and tensile strengths. Because each design encapsulates the insulation board in insulating concrete, the systems are fire-rated (as tested by Underwriters Laboratories in accordance with the procedures of ASTM E 119) and bond the total insulation system to the substrate, helping to prevent air infiltration. Significantly, Siplast Lightweight Insulating Concrete Systems are typically reusable and do not contribute to solid waste disposal.

Paraflex, Siplast’s liquid-applied roof membrane with a low odor signature, is based on Silane Terminated Polymer (STP) chemistry, and is low VOC and isocyanate-free. It is a convenient and reliable roofing solution for project circumstances that make the application of conventional roofing sheets difficult.
